Eyes Closed
As long as we keep our eyes closed,
We can sneak through the crack
Of perpetual motion in space and time,
To find the unique crystal
Made of a trillion magnon quasiparticles,
Whose impossible existence
Makes us almost believe in miracles.
Trillion: a million million (1,000,000,000,000 or 1012)
Magnon: a movement of the electrons' spin structure in a magnetic material.
Quasiparticle: an object that is similar to a particle, but does not meet the full criteria of a particle (a particle is a piece of matter smaller than an atom such as an electron or a proton).
Inspired by "Two Time Crystals Have Been Successfully Linked Together For The First Time," MICHELLE STARR in Science Alert, 2 JUNE 2022
